QC Floor Supervisor

Job Summary: Provide independent quality-control oversight throughout manufacturing, finishing, assembly, fulfillment and shipment readiness. Ensure work meets approved specifications and customer requirements through first-off approvals, documented inspections, SOP audits, defect containment and corrective actions. Direct the physical flow of work in accordance with schedules provided by department Supervisors; update the scheduler, verify daily job readiness and support safe, orderly shop-floor operations. Coordinate limited approved shop supplies and materials without assuming company-wide procurement authority. Department / Functional Scope: Quality oversight across all production departments and supporting processes, from job preparation and material verification through manufacturing, finishing, assembly, fulfillment, warehouse and final shipping checks. Includes schedule execution, floor readiness, cross-department job movement, safety/housekeeping follow-up and limited approved shop-supply coordination. Shipping/Receiving staff supervision applies only if formally assigned. Responsibilities and Duties: 1. Quality standards, SOP compliance and accountability: Work with department Supervisors and operators to maintain understanding and oversight of manufacturing processes and equipment operations, and to implement, maintain and improve approved SOPs, quality standards, first-off criteria, operator inspection checklists and corrective-action processes. Maintain a visible floor presence and conduct routine QC rounds and risk-based audits. Review active work, first-off approvals, completed checklists, retained samples, quality holds and handoff records, prioritizing new, complex or higher-risk jobs. Establish and reinforce consistent quality standards for each operation. Operators complete routine inspections and records; department leaders own operator training, machine/process execution and departmental quality; the QC Floor Supervisor independently verifies compliance across departments and shifts. 2. First-off approvals and ongoing quality inspections: Independently inspect and approve first-off sheets, parts, samples or initial completed work for assigned projects where trained, qualified and authorized. Compare against approved job specifications, customer requirements, version, materials, dimensions, appearance, function and finish, as applicable. Record job identification, approval, date/time and required sample or photographic evidence. Ensure first-off approvals are completed before full production where required and repeated following significant changes, quality concerns, adjustments or restarts under the applicable SOP. Do not allow unapproved work to proceed. Verify operators are performing and documenting in-process inspections at the frequencies and checkpoints established in approved SOPs and job instructions. Carry out independent spot checks and follow up on missing, incomplete or failed inspections. Evaluate work in progress and finished products against approved samples and specifications for accuracy, consistency, appearance, dimensions, workmanship and overall acceptability. Confirm that identified defects are documented and addressed promptly. Check that quality standards remain consistent through successive production stages, including finishing, assembly and packing. Confirm appropriate inspections and approvals are recorded before work advances to the next department or is prepared for shipment. 3. Nonconforming work, QC holds and corrective action: Immediately stop, identify and segregate suspect material; maintain a QC hold/release register documenting job, version, quantity and unit, defect, location, person responsible, required action, disposition and authorized release. Work with the operator and department lead to investigate deficiencies, determine necessary corrections and verify any rework, replacement, additional inspection or documented restart before authorized release.
